I Haz a Murloc!!
December 29th 2008, 14:26
It’s true! I do haz a Murloc!
No… I don’t play World of Warcraft, and I haven’t learned how to train a wild Murloc for my very own. But I do have a plushie that makes a sound when you squeeze his bottom lip. And I love it!
Yet, what is the draw? As a non-WoW player, [...]
Server Updates… Good, Bad, or Indifferent?
December 22nd 2008, 13:57
Most titles have regular updates of their servers. Sometimes it’s daily, sometimes it’s weekly… and sometimes randomly sporadic.
I’ve noticed sometimes that you can’t tell anything has been done, and other times there is a full list of update notes related to the down time. And I’m not talking major game updates… I’m talking [...]

December 15th 2008, 19:05
I had a friend, and I got mad so I blocked him. But it doesn’t show that he’s blocked. It’s broken!!
Well, yes and no. The functionality works. When you block a user they are unable to send you any messages or requests. However, without actually removing them from your friend [...]

And yet, when it comes to my gaming, I don’t want just anything… I want something so unbelievably COOL as to warrant me begging for more! Give me a [...]

December 15th 2008, 18:25
I see some pictures here, but I don’t know what they’re for!
Ahh, yes! It might be helpful to know what it’s all about! Here is a quick overview of the images you’ll find:
- This is the “Bump” icon. At this time it appears the same for everyone, regardless of how many bumps a [...]

Have you ever had a moment in your life where you wondered just what in the hell you were thinking when you decided to jump off that cliff? Or were curious what you would do if you could turn back time and go back to do it all over again, just because it was that [...]
Is Your Game Satisfying?
Posted by AutumnKiss, June 10th 2009, 14:39
I so often come across players who say they are only playing X game until Y game is released. Or that they went to Z game, only to return for lack of anything else that is exciting or interesting.
So what makes a player stick with a game from beginning to end, for years and years, [...]
E3 2009 - Were You There?
Posted by AutumnKiss, June 4th 2009, 11:52
This year, we had a suite rather than a booth, and avoided the noise and push of the crowds. A more intimate setting for a more personal touch. And… well… a scotch bar! Can’t do that in a booth!
Did you attend the convention? Do you have pictures or stories to share? Did you stop by [...]
Social Media: The Next Gen MMO?
Posted by AutumnKiss, May 19th 2009, 16:32
I’m sure you’ve heard about one form of social media or another… MySpace, Facebook, Twitter being among the most popular.
